Kuanzhai Alleys (Kuanzhai Xiangzi) or (宽窄巷子) are in my opinion the two streets in Chengdu that best represent Old Chengdu. They was originally built as a Beijing-style Hutong to house soldiers from Manchuria and Mongolia, but last century it became a popular spot for dignitaries to drink tea, feast and set up mansions. Although it is touristy, I think Kuanzhai Alleys perfectly capture the relaxed and celebratory spirit of Chengdu.
